I'm so glad we're heading into fall. While I use my slow cooker all year round, I do avoid soups and stews during most of the year. With some cooler temps, it's a great time to try some new soup recipes. This Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken Soup has become a new favorite at my house–filled with my family's favorite vegetables like red peppers, mushrooms and spinach. It's a very easy recipe that makes a great healthy dinner!

Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken Soup
Yield: 6 servings

Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken Soup

Slow Cooker Tuscan Chicken Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken, cubed
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 7oz jar roasted red peppers, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 oz fresh baby spinach, chopped

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients except spinach to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
  • Add spinach, stir, and cover. Cook for 10 more minutes or until spinach is wilted.
  • I usually serve soups with carbs on the side (like one of these 10 Sensations Sides for Soups & Stews). That way, the kids can carb-load while the adults take it easily. Alternately, you could add cubed potatoes for a more stew-like broth, or serve this soup with cooked rice or pasta.

      I’m definitely craving fall foods too. This soup looks so delicious & perfect for autumn. Made my way here through the Real Food Roundup. I’d love it if you stopped by my blog sometime. Have a great day!
